Scientific Career

Jens Friedland studied Chemical Engineering at Clausthal University of Technology with main courses in multiphase reaction engineering and apparatus design. He obtained a Dipl.-Ing. degree in 2013 (Dynamic CO methanation). He joined the early career group of Prof. Robert Güttel at Clausthal University of Technology in 2013 and worked at the Institute of Chemical and Electrochemical Process Engineering with Prof. Thomas Turek. Like his supervisor, he left Clausthal and moved to Ulm University in January 2017. In 2018, he received his Dr.-Ing. (Ph.D) with the "Characterization of an unsteady-state reaction system via pulse reaction with CO methanation as an example" form TU Clausthal. With this, he is the first to receive a Ph.D under the supervision of Prof. Güttel.
